I too suspect it is coincidence but two questions to add to my database, one are you using the Chrome browser, and regardless of browser do you have any extensions that help you 'fill in forms' ?

Yes to Chrome, no to form fillers.

Thanks, the reason I ask is that there have been a couple of articles lately on how much form data Chrome stores. (a somewhat rabid piece is here: http://www.usatoday.com/story/cybertruth/2013/10/10/google-c...) I keep wondering if that is an actual threat or not and if so how we could detect it.

See callmeed's comment above. Most likely that's the source.
